Our History

In today's day and age, it's unusual for a small start-up restaurant to be run by a local couple with no prior experience. In addition to providing good food and drinks, at fair prices, we have endeavored to revive the spirit and multiple roles that this historic venue has provided to the Springs community since 1934. A BIG thank you to all of our customers ( and future customers! ) for allowing us to make a dream come true. You can read about the history of our beloved location below.

The Springs Tavern in East Hampton and more Long Island restaurants to try this weekend

A casual spot with unfussy food and lively drinks suits a day this deep into summer. Here are three taverns that cook and pour with equal ease.

The Springs Tavern in East Hampton is at an address that used to be a hangout for Abstract Expressionists a few decades ago. It's a spirited destination once more. Recommended: pulled pork sliders, Baja fish tacos filled with cod, New England-style clam chowder, the wedge salad, fried calamari, macaroni and cheese, fish and chips, lobster salad roll, Key lime pie. Moderate.
